I've been working on my BLU for sometime now, soloing pretty much the whole way. Only needing help with a few spells and I must say, the majority of the time, learning the spells is easy. There were a few times it was yes frustrating, but that was usually a case of bad luck. The skill level needed to learn spells changes the minimum level needed a fair bit for learning spells. So I'll offer a bit of help here that will make learning easier, this will be without gear.
Spell Level 1~50 Can be 10 levels lower than spell; Skill cap goes up 3per level
Spell Level 51~80 Can be 6 levels lower than spell; Skill cap now goes up 5per level
Spell Level 81~90 Can be 5 levels lower than spell; Skill cap now goes up 6per level
Now gear will increase the possible level difference of course, what I have usually done when spell farming is only farm spells within 5 levels of my current level. This has made learning spells very easy as the mobs typically won't slaughter me when going for the later spells, like Spinal Cleave (That one was annoying to get). Also if you are having a hard time with a spell, get a couple people together to help break the tedium. Another great way to TP feed is to go unarmed on the monster, some may laugh, but with NIN as my sub, it does give me some skill so I could use Shoulder Tackle to stun the monster if it tries to use the wrong move.
